The 2000 Volvo V70 for buyers
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2000 Volvo V70 for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. Before you buy the 2000 Volvo V70, here is what the figures say and what to look at.
Recalls and complaints
Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. There are 5 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.
The figures, translated
It is powered by the 2.4L 5-cylinder, with front-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
It is rated 10.7 L/100 km combined: about 32 litres every 300 km. Per 100 km, plan on roughly $18.72. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,750 a year for 15,000 miles.
Room inside
As a wagon, it has the length of a car with a bigger load space at the back. Luggage space is rated at 1,048 litres: bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Who the V70 suits
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.
Try before you buy
Drive the V70 on your commute before you commit to it. A test week in the V70 tells you more than any review. A week with the V70 answers more than any brochure.
Running costs
The EPA estimates US$3,750 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $18.72 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $187.20 at our price setting.
Choosing the right one
If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Within the 2000 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.
